BEST OF SHOW & 1st Place Portrait/Personality - Jake Stevens, WKU. Injured Marine Justin Reynolds is surrounded in prayer by family members and Assistant Chaplin Terry Ginther, of Leipsic, Ohio. “Prayer is the only thing we’ve got,” said Ginther. Reynolds, who served two tours of duty in the Iraq War was honorably discharged in 2006 after his Humvee was hit by a roadside bomb, filling his legs with shrapnel. Doctors believe a virus contracted after his injures infected his brain, leaving Justin disabled but aware.
